DumfriesYMCA Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Feel like there are better ways to handle wanting to replace a coach midseason it’s also the only time I can think of where a HS coach in Indiana was let go mid season. To what I can recall, every other coaching change happens after the season is over for the team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobref Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 In a small high school program, unless there was some sort of misconduct involved, I don’t see how changing coaches in mid-season does anyone any good. Does the AD think that after being outscored 169-0 in the first 3 games, they’re going to suddenly turn the season around? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looked on Harrells site…what’s weird about that is they went 15-0 and then didn’t even keep the interim coach? Just really weird to me.

Maybe he didn't want to be the HC? I'm not sure, just speculating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My alma mater plays at Whitko this Friday. Maybe I'll make the drive to watch it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blitz Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 So bizarre and while a great article, only tells one side of the story. Efforts were made of course, but gag order prevents us from hearing the "other" side. Blitz has heard from a few folks that the word around Whitley County is that parents had gone to the administration about their kids not playing if the coach wasn't removed. Regardless of the reasoning, having it all go down in front of the kids is something neither party should have allowed to happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly could have been handled better all the way around. Horrible situation for the players. Best of luck moving forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
